Insurance

Vicente LLP helps clients navigate the intersection of insurance and cannabis law to obtain appropriate insurance policies for their marijuana, hemp or ancillary services businesses.

Many insurers are unfamiliar with how cannabis businesses operate and the highly nuanced state and local regulations that govern them, while many business owners have limited experience identifying and analyzing the terms and conditions of insurance policies. Vicente LLP attorneys are able to bridge this knowledge gap and serve as trusted advisors to either party. Members of our team also have significant experience successfully advocating on behalf of clients in coverage litigation and bad faith disputes.
